      mine said all are staying overnight on Friday but must check out before 10 a.m. Saturday.

      didn't say if can check out on Friday, probably because she wants to stay. šŸ˜ž
      It is not compulsory to stay overnight šŸ˜„

        due to camp briefing ends at 10pm. šŸ˜ž


        HUH???

        Yes, you mean your son didn't tell you camp briefing ends at 10pm? Camp is next week.

        My son will stay back, since it's late. I'll fetch him in the morning.

          Just Mama:
          šŸ™‚ that is from the parents' perspective. My take is that boarding is generally good for the child; or at least for mine. She has become more independent, more mature .. and very importantly, more appreciative of family time ...

          I'm quite happy for my son to be at boarding. What's the big deal?

                Kids need to learn and grow. no worries for me as my dd adapt very well at boarding and has become more independent, importantly she is happy. :lol:

                    No big deal......as i have mentioned in my previous posting,
                    it is just personal preference, be it to mummies or daughters
                    just post my view when i happened to read a posting stating, \"again not coming back on Friday this week.\"

                        It's pretty natural to miss our children when they are not around and we look forward to their homecoming each week.... but I won't consider it as a 'torture' lah....think the benefits outweigh our insecurities and fears ..


                        I'm learning to let go and afterall, it's only for a term... šŸ˜„
